At the Helmholtz-Centre for Infection Reserach (HZI) scientists study mechanisms of infections and the corresponding immunlogical response. What is it that makes bacteria or viruses a pathogenic mircoorganism? A better understanding of this and related questions will be the key to development of new therapies and immunization strategies.
Created in 2013, the ICube laboratory brings together the research strengths of the University of Strasbourg, France in the fields of engineering science and computer science, with imaging as the unifying theme.
